Journal 2: Refresher Course in Faith

We ra as fast as we could, taking out as many GKR soldiers as necessary. All the while, Kal was smiling like an idiot, speaking in blatant Korean only. In a way, I didn't blame him for despizing his own country for being warmongers, but we still had to get out while we could. Kal snatched up a semi-automatic machine gun and fired it at two GKR officers, eyes blazing with rage. Meanwhile, a soldier tried running up to rifle butt me, but I ducked under it, snatched a knife from his belt, and stabbed him through his eye. He fell to his knees in agony, then I kicked the knife deeper into his skull, killing him. I didn't care much for his death, I just wanted to escape.

"Kal!" I yelled through the madness. "Where are you?!"

"Over here, Wayne!" I heard Kal yell. I turned to my right, and Kal was waving to me, and then pointed to an open sewer grate. I turned to my left just as an APC blew up in front of me, then I ran and jumped into the manhole. Kal followed suit, and then sealed the manhole. I turned on the flashlight for the gun, then took a deep breath. Sewers are notorious for being incredibly nasty-smelling, and this one was no different, but Kal seemed unfazed, as though he'd done this before.

"Okay Wayne. Follow me." Kal said, pointing to the front of him. I nodded, then we crept along silently. I had hopes that there were no GKR soldiers also creeping in here, hoping to catch any 'traitors' as they called us. After what seemed like an hour, Kal pointed up toward another grate. We climbed up the ladder leading up to it, opened up the manhole, and within a moment, we were hit with multiple weapon flashlights. For a moment, we had thought the people holding them were GKR, but they noticed Kal, and lowered their weapons. To our surprise, they were teenagers, except for two children. One of them pulled us up and sealed the manhole, then she sat down and crossed her legs. The girl then looked deeply at both of us.

"Welcome to the Blacklisters."
